PRIVACY POLICY

OVERVIEW

You take online privacy seriously, and so does Lexington Home Loans. It's our way of sustaining your trust in our company, our products, and our services. Our privacy statement describes how we collect, protect, and use customer information.

There are a few simple things that you can do to safeguard your information on the Internet: keep your account number, username, and password safe; be sure to use a secure browser and keep your virus detection software current; never open e-mail from an unknown source; and always log out of the loan status area when you're finished.

When you call, our security procedures require that we ask you for information only you would know so we're sure it's you. However, no Lexington Home Loans employee will ever ask you for your account password.

This privacy statement applies to our online privacy policy. When you become a customer, and on an annual basis, we provide you with our privacy policy entitled "Important Information About Your Privacy." For complete information regarding our privacy policies and practices for customers, please refer to that notice.

While information is the cornerstone of our ability to provide superior service, our most important asset is our customers' trust. Keeping customer information secure, and using it only as our customers would want us to, is a top priority for all of us at Lexington Home Loans. Here then, is our promise to our individual customers:

1. We will safeguard, according to strict standards of security and confidentiality, any information our customers share with us.

2. We will limit the collection and use of customer information to the minimum we require delivering superior service to our customers. This includes advising our customers about our products, services and other opportunities and to administer our business.

3. We will permit only authorized employees, who are trained in the proper handling of customer information, to have access to that information. Employees who violate our. Privacy Promise will be subject to our normal disciplinary process.

4. We will not reveal customer information to any external organization unless we have previously informed the customer in disclosures or agreements, been authorized by the customer, or are required by law.

5. We will always maintain control over the confidentiality of our customer information. We may, however, facilitate relevant offers from reputable companies. These companies are not permitted to retain any customer information unless the customer has specifically expressed interest in their products or services.

6. We will tell customers in plain language initially, and at least once annually, how they may remove their names from such lists.

7. Whenever we hire other organizations to provide support services, we will require them to conform to our policy standards and to allow us to audit them for compliance.

8. For purposes of credit reporting, verification and risk management, we will exchange information about our customers with reputable reference sources and clearinghouse services.

9. We will not use or share internally or externally, personally identifiable medical information for any purpose other than the underwriting or administration of a customer's policy, claim or account, or as disclosed to the customer when the information is collected, or to which the customer consents. We will attempt to keep customer files complete, up to date, and accurate. We will tell our customers how and where to conveniently access their account information (except when we're prohibited by law), and how to notify us about errors which we will promptly correct.

We will continuously assess ourselves to ensure that customer privacy is respected. We will conduct our business in a manner that fulfills our promise in the many nations in which we do business.
